I know people from Quebec who have their husbands' last names. I'm surprised that the charter allows the Quebec government to stop women from taking on their married names. I know the feds give Quebec concessions, but that one doesn't seem to jibe with Canada's rights and freedoms.


eta: However, I forgot that Quebec is under the civil law code, while the rest of Canada is under common law, so I suppose that can make marriage laws in Quebec different from ROC.
